Inside the main camp of the Konoha front.
Minato Namikaze frowned, his gaze fixed on the map on the table, lost in thought.
The sound of the door opening made him raise his head.
Seeing the person who entered, a warm smile appeared on Minato Namikaze's face.
"Mirai, you've finally arrived."
"Minato, long time no see."
Mirai Uchiha greeted and, looking at the map full of symbols on the table, said with a smile: "Minato, it seems the war is not going very well."
Hearing Mirai Uchiha's joke, Minato Namikaze nodded with resignation: "That's right."
"The Sand Village ninjas are experts in the use of puppets and poison, which has caused us a considerable number of casualties."
"Honestly, it's giving me a real headache."
On the battlefield, the majority were genin and chūnin, and they were often the ones who decided the outcome of the entire battle.
But, as it happens, their attack methods were the simplest and most direct.
Shurikens, explosive tags, hand-to-hand combat...
This style of fighting was precisely their weakness against the puppet masters of the Sand Village.
Furthermore, the village had recently withdrawn a group of ninjas from his command, which, to make matters worse, had made the already precarious situation even more difficult.
But, fortunately, he now had Mirai's support, and the situation would surely take a turn.
Thinking this, Minato Namikaze looked at Mirai Uchiha and asked with curiosity: "Mirai, is it true that you cut off the Fourth Raikage's arm?"
"Please, let's not talk about that anymore, my head already hurts from hearing about it so much."
Mirai Uchiha said with resignation.
He had only cut off one of A's arms, it wasn't that big of a deal, was it?
Why did everyone have to come and confirm it with him personally?
"It's truly impressive. A is a very powerful ninja."
Minato Namikaze reflected.
On one occasion, during a mission, he had encountered an assault squad led by A, and the latter's speed was still fresh in his memory.
A was a ninja whose strength was not inferior to his own.
But he didn't expect such a guy to be defeated at the hands of Mirai.
And to think that, just a few months ago, when he was training with Mirai, he still felt he had him under control.
Such a terrifying talent that even he felt a little envious.
Minato Namikaze was very curious to know how far Mirai could go in the future.
"And about the Seven Ninja Swordsmen..."
"Stop! There's no need to talk about unimportant matters. You'd better tell me the current situation."
Seeing that Minato Namikaze still wanted to continue, Mirai Uchiha immediately stopped him.
That direct style of bragging wasn't his thing.
"Mirai, you're still the same as always, always full of energy no matter when."
Minato Namikaze smiled.
He didn't expect that after so long at war, Mirai could still maintain such momentum.
If that's the case, he couldn't be left behind either!
After organizing his thoughts, Minato Namikaze quickly explained the current situation to Mirai Uchiha.
After listening, Mirai Uchiha snorted: "So this is the situation?"
"It doesn't seem like there's anything to worry about."
Hearing Mirai Uchiha's words, Minato Namikaze asked expectantly: "Mirai, do you happen to have a good solution?"
"Since the genin and chūnin suffer heavy casualties when facing the puppet masters, then I'll just kill all those puppet masters and that's it."
"Huh?" Minato Namikaze was taken aback and couldn't help but remind him: "Mirai, the poison used by the Sand ninjas was developed by Chiyo. We still haven't found an antidote."
"If you get poisoned by accident, death is certain."
Mirai Uchiha waved his hand, dismissing it, and turned to leave: "They can't hurt me. Wait for my good news."
Seeing Mirai Uchiha's back as he left, Minato Namikaze's depressed mood lightened.
He didn't know why, but every time he met Mirai Uchiha, he always gave him a feeling of invincibility.
After thinking for a moment, Minato Namikaze prepared his ninja tool pouch and also left the tent.
"I can't leave all the pressure on Mirai. I'll go out and stretch my muscles too."
————
In the rain.
Mirai Uchiha, with his sword in hand, adjusted his perception to the maximum with Kagura's Mind's Eye.
Combining the information Minato Namikaze had given him, he soon discovered the hidden Sand Village ninja outposts nearby.
There were more than thirty, densely clustered in a mutually supporting horn formation.
If one outpost was attacked, the ninjas from the other posts could quickly arrive to provide support.
"Let's start from the center."
To save time, Mirai Uchiha flew directly from the sky to position himself above the most central outpost.
"Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Jutsu!"
A huge fire dragon, spitting flames, swooped down and instantly engulfed the outpost below.
Screams of agony were heard. Several Sand Village ninjas, covered in flames, staggered out of the post. Upon seeing Mirai Uchiha, they used their last strength to fire a signal flare into the sky.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering the reward: Secret Technique: Puppet Jutsu!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering the reward: Chakra +1!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully plundering the reward: Constitution +1!]
[...]
Boom!
As a series of notifications sounded, the signal flare also exploded in the sky.
Immediately after, the ground began to tremble slightly.
In just an instant, Mirai Uchiha was surrounded by a dense crowd of Sand Village ninjas.
"What's going on? There's only one Konoha brat here?"
"What the hell are the sentinels up front doing? They let a Konoha ninja get all the way here."
"Kill him quickly, this great lord wants to go back to sleep."
Seeing that it was only Mirai Uchiha, the Sand Village ninjas seemed quite uninterested.
It didn't matter how he had gotten here, under the siege of so many, he had no escape, even if he grew wings.
"Is that all of you?"
Looking at the nearly two hundred Sand Village ninjas surrounding him, Mirai Uchiha felt a little disappointed.
To make such a fuss and wait so long, only for less than two hundred people to show up in the end.
"Hey, what nonsense are you talking, brat?"
"Only this few? You arrogant bastard! Are you underestimating us?"
"Hmph! Delusional idiot, die!"
The dozen Sand ninjas closest to Mirai Uchiha controlled their puppets and attacked simultaneously.
In an instant, a shower of senbons shot towards Mirai Uchiha from all directions, leaving him no room to dodge.
The senbons shone with a dark purple light, clearly poisoned.
The Sand Village ninjas showed grotesque smiles.
They wanted to see with their own eyes how this brat ended up turned into a hedgehog.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A series of sounds was heard. A huge mass of gold dust surged from under Mirai Uchiha's feet, forming a golden wall that protected him, blocking all the attacks.
Seeing this scene, all the Sand ninjas present stood frozen, with expressions of total disbelief on their faces.
Gold dust...
This was Magnet Style!!!
